sooooo

commerce 10/20 hadn't been treating me well at all

then I pick up AA and get all-in preflop against TWO players? omgwftbbq? For once my hand holds up and it seems I've netted $4300 on the hand

and then someone starts asking some guy at the table how it felt to make the final table of the WSOP ME. And I'm like huh? I haven't watched any of the stuff on tv this year so I go and do some googlework and.... it looks like Tuan Lam? that makes no sense, why would he be in LA right now?

Isnt he a high stakes limit guy, prob just draining some money from the commerce

2/4 is a circus imo

agreed. i also dont think your AJs hand is that bad, but folding to the small raise on a monotone board in a 3b pot is probably slightly better.

after today's perfomance i am embarassed to call myself a poker player.

i think i fall somewhere into the twighlight zone.. somewhere between bouge_todd and aejones status.

I think I lost something in the translation here. Is this a compliment, a jab, something else? I'm confused.....

edit: I'll take it as a compliment that a 10/20+ player is comparing himself to me. Don't care how it was intended, lol

for you peeps who learned holdem first and then got good at plo, how did you begin learning plo? Was it more videos, books, or juts playing a lot of hands?
